Definitions
- the present invention relates to an apparatus and method for retaining insulation particles and, more particularly, to an air barrier layer that is sprayed over insulation retaining material.
- the installing of insulation into a building can take different forms and involve a variety of methods.
- insulation particles are blown into a wall, floor and/or ceiling construction.
- the insulation particles are held within such building constructions by means of an insulation retention structure.
- a netting material is used to hold the insulation in the building cavities.
- the netting material includes a number of netting holes that permit air to escape as the cavity behind the netting material is being filled with loose insulation particles.
- drywall is connected over the netting material.
- a layer that acts as an air barrier has beneficial insulation properties. It is also advantageous to allow the displacement of air through netting holes as insulation particles are filling a body cavity behind the netting material. It would, therefore, be worthwhile to devise a method and apparatus that provides an air barrier layer in combination with netting material in order to retain loose fill insulation while providing increased resistance to the passage of air thereby enhancing the insulation properties of the resultant building construction.
- a method for installing loose fill insulation particles is provided.
- a building assembly is constructed that can include a wall, floor, and/or ceiling structure.
- Such a building assembly includes building cavities defined by such a structure for receiving insulation particles that are to be blown into such cavities.
- a netting material having netting holes is attached to the building assembly. More specifically, studs or other boards that comprise the building assembly have the netting material attached to them using connectors, such as construction grade staples. The studs and wall, floor or ceiling boards, together with the netting material, define the building cavities that are to receive the insulation particles. For each building cavity, an opening is created that is large enough to receive a conventional hose that delivers loose fill insulation particles under pressure.
- the opening is usually created by enlarging or severing the regular pattern of netting holes at suitable locations in the netting material.
- the hose, or a nozzle attached to the end of the hose is positioned in the created opening in the netting material.
- Loose fill insulation particles can then be supplied under pressure using the hose, with the insulation particles being output from the free end of the hose or the nozzle into the building cavity thereby filling it with insulation particles.
- an air barrier layer is then formed, which overlies or is disposed outwardly of the netting material. The air barrier layer covers the netting holes, as well as any opening that was formed in the netting material through which the hose was inserted.
- the air barrier layer is formed by a spraying process using a nozzle that may be, but need not be, different from the nozzle used when the loose fill insulation particles are supplied to the building cavities behind the netting material.
- a hose connected to such a nozzle for delivering of the material that forms the air barrier layer is different from the hose that supplies the insulation particles to the nozzle for outputting behind the netting material.
- the air barrier layer is preferably comprised of an adhesive that has some color or tint so that the resulting air barrier layer can be observed or visualized by the operator, who is controlling the spraying of this air barrier layer. Such visualization is useful in determining whether or not a sufficiently thick barrier layer has been provided over the netting material.
- the air barrier layer After the air barrier layer has been created by spraying, it can be covered by commonly employed building materials, such as drywall that is connected to a building wall assembly.
- an insulated building assembly that includes a number of layers, each of which is separately established.
- the netting material with netting holes initially retains the loose fill insulation particles, while permitting the passage or displacement of air.
- the air barrier layer is separately formed over the netting material for achieving enhanced insulation properties in the building assembly.
- a building assembly and process for making the assembly are disclosed in which desired functional characteristics are maintained, while increasing the resulting insulation properties by providing a further insulation layer. More specifically, netting material having its desirable attributes is utilized while incorporating an additional layer for reducing unwanted air passage or flow through the building assembly.
- the method and apparatus covers netting holes and any openings that were made for the blowing of the insulation particles.
- the air barrier layer also covers or plugs apertures in the netting material that are created due to the connectors or staples that hold the netting material to the building assembly.
- the additional air barrier layer is relatively easy to install and is further characterized by the ability of the operator to observe the sprayed air barrier layer in order to determine when this layer has been properly applied over the netting material.
- FIG. 1 is a perspective view that illustrates a building assembly constructed in accordance with the present invention
- FIG. 2 is a side elevational view of the building assembly of FIG. 1;
- FIG. 3 is an enlarged top view of the building assembly of FIG. 1;
- FIG. 4 is a perspective view illustrating the building assembly having netting material attached with staples and the blowing in of insulation particles before formation of the air barrier layer;
- FIG. 5 is a perspective view illustrating the formation of an air barrier layer by means of spraying a suitable material.
- a building assembly 10 is disclosed that is insulated using the method of the present invention.
- the inventor of the present invention has previously devised method and apparatus related to the present invention and which subject matter is found in the following U.S. patents, with each being incorporated herein by reference:
- the building assembly 10 of the illustrated embodiment is a wall construction that includes a number of vertically extending studs 14 that are mounted between lower joists 18 and upper joists 22.
- An outer wall 26 is connected to the studs 14 and the lower, upper joists 18, 22. The outer wall 26 abuts the outwardly facing sides of the studs and the lower, upper joists 18, 22.
- a number of building cavities or wall spaces 30 are defined between each adjoining pair of studs 14 and extend inwardly towards the interior of the building from the outer wall 26.
- netting material 34 is attached to the studs 14, lower joists 18 and upper joists 22 and extends across a number of building cavities 30 of the building assembly 10.
- the netting material 34 is attached to the inwardly facing sides of the studs 14, lower joists 18 and upper joists 22 by connectors 36, such as staples or the like.
- the netting material 34 has a number of netting holes 38 that are regularly interspersed among the netting material and typically constitute more surface area than the netting material 34.
- the building assembly 10 also has loose fill insulation particles 42 that have been blown in under pressure or otherwise supplied to the building cavities 30 using a conventional or well-known machine that delivers insulation particles under pressure through a hose.
- the netting material 34 has enlarged openings 46 formed therein for the purpose of receiving the outlet member, such as a hose or nozzle, that carries and outputs the loose fill insulation particles.
- the outlet member such as a hose or nozzle
- one or more openings 46 are formed in the netting by enlarging the netting holes 38, for example, so that the output mechanism can be received through the netting material 34.
- the netting material can be comprised of laminated layers, as described in U.S. Pat. No. 5,287,674 which was incorporated by reference herein.
- the building assembly 10 also includes an air barrier layer 50 that overlies and is joined to the netting material 34.
- the air barrier layer 50 is formed by spraying a flowable material over the netting material 34 after the insulation particles 42 have been received within the building cavities 30 that are being covered by the layer 50.
- the sprayed material composition that forms the air barrier layer 50 includes an adhesive made, for example, from animal glues, polyvinyl acetate, ethylvinyl acetate, or the like.
- the air barrier layer 50 can be utilized to form the air barrier layer 50 including a binder identified as AIRE-BLOCTM and available from a company identified as Abiff in Denver, Colo.
- the material composition of the barrier layer 50 has a color or tint that can be seen by the operator or user that is applying the layer 50 so that the operator can determine, based on observation or visualization, when sufficient thickness of the air barrier layer 50 is present.
- the air barrier layer 50 can then be covered with conventional building materials, such as drywall.
- the operator sprays the material composition over the netting material 34 using a hose 58 and a nozzle 62 connected at the end of the hose 54.
- the nozzle 54 is, preferably, different from any nozzle used in supplying the insulation particles 42 behind the netting material 34.
- the sprayed material composition that results in the air barrier layer 50 relatively quickly hardens or cures to form a solid layer that increases the resistance to air passage or flow through the building assembly that includes the air barrier layer 50.
- the netting holes 38 and the openings 46 are covered with a sufficient thickness to achieve the desired functionality of acting as an air barrier.
- the thickness of the layer 50 is different from the thickness of the netting method 34 and, preferably, less than the thickness of the netting material.
- the sprayed material composition also acts to cover perforations or holes that provide access to the insulation particles 42 past the netting material 34 by covering such perforations or holes.
- the air barrier layer 50 completely covers or encompasses such connectors 36, but need not totally cover them so long as the desired air barrier function is achieved. During the spraying of the material composition to form the air barrier layer 50, some of this barrier composition passes or seeps into the insulation particles 42 contained within the building cavities 30.
- the operator is able to observe the material composition as it covers the netting material 34 including the netting holes 38 to achieve the suitable thickness of the air barrier layer 50.
- drywall or other building materials can be substantially immediately connected to the studs 14 and the lower, upper joists 18, 22 since little time is required for the desired hardening of the air barrier layer 50.
- a vapor barrier can also be formed over the netting material 34.
- the vapor barrier is intended to prevent or reduce the passage of moisture through the barrier.
- a vapor barrier can be formed by spraying a vapor barrier material, such as a low permeable binder that might include polyethylene.
- a vapor barrier is formed by spraying the vapor barrier material after the spraying or formation of the air barrier layer 50.
- the vapor barrier layer could be formed at the same time, or substantially the same time, as the air barrier layer by a spraying or formation of a material or materials that provide a combination air and vapor barrier layer.
